Abstract
A controller is used to provide a sharable, programmable and composable infrastructure. The controller includes a user manager to take input of user application programming interface calls that correspond to actions accepted from users. A physical manager fulfills requests from the user manager by manipulating distributed physical resources and logical devices in a network controlled by the controller. A configuration effector implements configuration changes to the physical resources and logical devices. A device monitor determines a status of the physical resources and logical devices, propagates the status to the physical manager for detecting a failure of the physical resources and logical devices in real-time, and mitigates the failure.
